A tool to help people at risk of osteoporosis to calculate their bone fragility.

"The FRAX® tool is a freely-accessible online calculator to help evaluate patients at low, medium, or high risk of fragility fractures based on clinical-risk factors (with or without the use of bone mineral-density values). FRAX® calculates an individual’s 10-year probability of hip fracture and 10-year probability of a major osteoporotic fracture (forearm, hip, shoulder or spine fracture). The information helps physicians make informed treatment decisions in the course of a clinical evaluation."International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF), Switzerland | http://bit.ly/17zI4wR
